Learn Hebrew. Study the Jewish scriptures. Your savior was one of my people, a Jew. And the books that your information is coming from are English translations that were both censored by the people forcing the translation, and had intentional errors added by the Jews forced to translate under threat of execution.

I know that this doesn’t mesh well with the Christian concept that the KJV was “divinely inspired,” but even if you take that view, it’s still a non-literal translation.

I too am very interested in this subject. I also know you’ll learn more by reading the scriptures in the same language that he would have been, and by learning about what daily life was really like for Jews back then. Because he was one, and he lived amongst them.

This is the only way of linking any kind of “cannabis tradition” to Christianity, as in the eyes of the church, they’ve never been big on reefer madness, whereas in Judaism, things are either allowed, or not allowed. And it’s allowed(with a few exceptions.)
